My DD 4 months takes 5 6oz bottles a day. They vary though - is your baby gaining weight well? Are you feeding on demand pr to schedule?

hi, asking on behalf of sil, little one seems well and gaining weight, she is satified but is only taking 15 to 20oz
does your dd drain the bottle everytime?

At 4 months my ds was draining six 6oz bottles a day. I think it depends on their weight and how active they are though. How much does she weigh? My ds was a big baby (17lbs at this age) and a bit of a guzzler!! He's still a guzzler though and weighs 25lbs at nearly a year. They are all different. If she's gaining weight and seems happy then tell her not to worry!
